TGFBI Gene Mutation Analysis of Clinically Diagnosed Granular Corneal Dystrophy Patients Prior to PTK: A Pilot Study from Eastern China

Abstract This study investigated the TGFBI gene mutation types in outpatients clinically diagnosed with granular corneal dystrophy (GCD) prior to phototherapeutic keratectomy (PTK), also calculated the mutation rate of subjects with normal corneas, but positive family history. Clinical GCD outpatien...
